postage in box or package

jockeyboard

This is really a thread of interest ut does anyone know if it is cheaper to post an item in a square box or an uneven wrapped package?

Depends on size and weight, no matter what way you send it.

Check out An Post website, all info there.

Too many variables: depends on size, shape and weight. Ask in a post office

Why don't you enquire at the post office?

A box can still be posted as a package if it meets the size and weight criteria for packages.

Because everyone knows boards is defacto say on everything

If boards says Harvey Norman is open till 11 tonight, when you get there at 10.30, your entitled by law to have the CEO personally come down to the store, open up and apologize for the mix up

Also, SW make decisions on payments based in what's said here

That's my favourite chatup line.

D'you work at the post office, luv?

"No. F*ck you asking me that for?"

"Saw you checking out me package."

A 'packet' is considerablly cheaper than a 'parcel'.

If you, like me, are a part time post and logistics enthusiast and you struggle to remember which is cheaper, simply say to yourself "A packet won't cost a packet!"

This will help you remember that a packet is cheaper.

Thanks.

If you measured the length, depth and height of the item and told us where you were sending it from and to we could have helped you out more.

Depending on the item, placing it into a box may have been a better alternative. Then, if you gave us the dimensions of the box, we may have helped you out more.

This isn't the super special mind readers forum yknow.

We told you it depends on the size and the weight.....and guess what? It depends on the size and the weight.
